Hello,

My name is Ashley, I am 25 years old. I am going for lap band surgery on April 23, 2012.. Here is how my process has went.... Hope this helped everyone out who is considering lapband Or still in the process.


[color=#0000CD]4/29/2012 - [/color][color=#FF0000]I am 6 days POST OP and am feeling pretty good. I had a lot of gas pains since surgery, in my chest and shoulders.They are easing up. I am completly off my pain meds now. Tomorrow will be one week for me and I can not believe I am down already 15.4 LBS... Wow, that was my montly goal !! (I had diarehha for my first 4 days, 5 seconds after I would drink it came out lol) Think that had lot to do with it. I have been exercising 3 times a day for 15 minutes each time. So this is it for week 1.. [/color]
[color="#0000cd"]4/24/2012 - [color="#ff0000"] I am feeling great, still losing. I am now down 28 lbs in just 1 month! I am so excited. I go for my first fill on 6/5/12 so I will update everything then. [/color][/color]
